While there are not many details on the potential relationship, leaders of both organizations expressed a strategy of moving the center of patient care from the hospital to the physician’s office, and if possible, to the home, according to the report.
Partnering would create a larger patient base for BayCare and would help the institutions maintain financial strength as payment models change under healthcare reform, according to the report.
